If your bargman power wire isnt shut off by the tow vehicle when the engine is off, you can't use the victron charger that doesn't have the additional wire option, because there no way to turn off the dc dc charger.? If the bargman power wire is shut off when the tow vehicle engine ships off, you just wire the bargman power wire into the main input of the dc dc charger, and also as the additional wire option.

I just did an on-line chat with Renogy re my situation. The reply was that they would not recommend installing a lithium battery in the camper without a DC-DC charger.? My original avoidance of wanting to do this is that some of these converters require a wire connected to the tow vehicle ignition switch and I did not want to run an additional wire thru my vehicle to do this.? However, I found out that Victron makes a charger that does not require this.? So, I guess my next question would be has anyone used this type of charger and how and where did you install it?
